Sparkling Soirée
Kick Off the Holidays at Our Annual Sparkling Soirée!
We’re ringing in the holiday season with bubbles and celebration. Our Method Oregon Sparkling Wines are made from the three traditional Champagne grapes: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. Like all of our wines, it is 100% estate-grown and crafted with care from vine to glass. We’re excited to unveil the third vintage of Balsall Creek Sparkling Brut just in time for the most festive season of the year.
Celebrate the launch with us at an evening filled with heavy hors d’oeuvres, live music, holiday cheer, and the ceremonial first pop of the 2023 vintage. Enjoy pours of the new release, explore sparkling gift boxes available for purchase, and toast the season with your Balsall Creek family.
Founders: Complimentary | Club Members: $30 | Non-Members: $60

Wreath Making Workshop
Join our resident cheer-makers in our holiday workshop for this wreath making event! We transform the tasting room into a festive craft room for this event, full of sparkle, color, and the delightful smell of fresh-cut pine and cedar. Balsall Creek ownership’s mother-daughter duo, Lesli Owens and Emily Yensen, have hosted a wreath making party for many years, and now they have brought it to the Estate House.
Tickets include a hands-on training by Lesli and Emily, all the makings for your own wreath — a ring, the greens, baubles, and ribbon — sparkling wine, and light bites.
Members: $50 | Non-Members: $80
